ADRIAN HANAUER AWARD FOR COMPASSION IN ACTION

Adrian Hanauer was named the first recipient of the Adrian Hanauer Compassion in Action award given by America SCORES Seattle on June 1st.

The award was presented by Donald Horowitz, SCORES founding board chair and Tya N. a SCORES poet-athlete from Maple Elementary School in Seattle.

In an intimate fundraising event “Poetry in the Park” held at Herban Feast by America SCORES Seattle, the proceedings of the evening were briefly interrupted to present Mr. Hanauer with this award for his extensive contribution to the community’s youth specifically through education and soccer. Mr. Hanauer seemingly taken by surprise by the award expressed his thanks to the entire local Seattle community, Seattle Sounders fans, and all the support he and his organization have received through the years.

“We are very grateful to the Seattle Sounders FC and most particularly Adrian Hanauer for his enduring support and are excited to present him with this well deserved honor.” said America SCORES Seattle, Executive Director, Carole Kelley. “We look forward to working with Adrian and the Sounders FC to bring new opportunities to Seattle’s underserved children.”
